FaZe Clan’s roster has always been around the upper echelons of Rainbow Six, stretching back all the way to the first Six Invitational in 2017. Then playing under Santos Dexterity, they had made Latin America proud after they had made it as far as the Semi-Finals of that tournament after defeating the Europeans of Euronics Gaming, and then had given a tough fight to eventual champions Continuum (now Evil Geniuses).
Even back then, though, four-fifths of the roster was identical to what constitutes FaZe Clan today -- only gohaN has changed in favour of yoona. Astro, HSnamuringa, mav, and cameram4n still remain. Unfortunately for the Brazilians, after their brilliant run to the Grand Finals of the Season 8 Pro League in Rio de Janeiro, their Season 9 has got off to a much rougher start. The team finds itself in fifth place, with a miniscule chance of them still making it to the Season 9 Finals later this year.
